KidShield turns a kid's first phone into something that only connects them to you, your group, and their actual friends. No browser. No app store. No Instagram. Just big buttons with their friends' faces — and a GPS dot on your screen.
If you didn't approve it, it isn't on the phone. That's the entire operating principle.
KidShield is in development — this is how it works at launch:
Add their approved contacts in Villagely — grandparents, you, the three friends from their class.
Only those faces appear on the phone. No search. No "suggested friends." No way to add a stranger.
Big buttons with friends' faces. You get a GPS dot on your screen. Messages auto-delete after 7 days.
A first phone that does exactly what a first phone should — and nothing else.
KidShield replaces the home screen entirely. The browser, the Play Store, and every other app are gone. Just the people you approved.
KidShield uses Guided Access mode — we'll walk you through the 2-minute setup so the phone locks to KidShield and nothing else.
KidShield ships inside Family Shield — $4.99/month. Family Shield households get everything in Leader today, and first-in-line access to KidShield when it launches, at no extra cost.
